10 a.m. Market Calls Defined by Skittish Street



February 11, 2003 (financialwire.net via COMTEX) -- (FinancialWire) The skittish market rebounded Monday after Iraq said it would accept U-2 surveillance flights, but that didn't seem to phase President Bush, who was seen to be ploughing straight ahead with the bearing of a Texas mule wearing blinders to all else. Alan Greenspan delivers his semi-annual report on monetary policy to the Senate Banking Committee, with continued signs that the Fed will continue to aggressively tweak the economy.
